| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The ring camera doorbell video is from a friend and I have permission to post it… I saw it driving north up the freeway 287 from Rhome, Texas to Decatur, Texas. I've seen reports of the same fireball at the same time clear over in Albuquerque. As in New Mexico. It was a vibrant blue green, and it was enormous… You could see the flames coming off the tail. From my perspective, it literally went about 45° across the entire sky. It was insane! Probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen. |
